problems updating glibc

[Peter Robinson]

Hi All,

I've seen mention of this (and actually saw it on another system of
mine but it settled down) where glibc-common can't update due to
glibc.

The machine is a Fit-PC which runs on an AMD Geode. It currently has
the glibc version 2.8.90-14 i686 rpm and attempting to update to 2.9-2
it errors with "package glibc-2.9-2.i686 is intended for a i686
architecture" which seems weird given that its already running the
i686 version. Any ideas?

Peter
